Answer

A retaliatory eviction? It would not be wise at all for your landlord to attempt to evict you if your wife filed an injury claim. His behavior seems egregious enough, that he'd probably face a very stern housing court judge if he brought an eviction proceeding, and it could seriously backfire on him. You should contact a personal injury lawyer asap.
